Forty-eight patients with pleural effusions who had sonographically directed thoracocentesis were evaluated retrospectively for radiologic findings, pleural fluid chemistries, and outcome. Loculation was found to be a radiologic marker of diagnostic and prognostic significance. The presence of loculations correlated with exudative pleural fluid chemistries, but no radiologic finding was specifi...

The radiologic evolution of Leigh disease is documented with sequential brain MR in the acute phase of the illness, at 3 weeks, and at 3 months.

Putamenal involvement is not a pathognomonic radiologic finding. Brain stem tegmentum, particularly th...

Duplication of inferior vena cava (IVC) is a rare finding in radiologic studies and its coincidence with thrombosis is even rarer. Here we described a rare case with duplication of IVC and symptomatic venous thrombosis of her lower extrimity.

Hepatic involvement of amyloidosis is common. Diffuse infiltration with hepatomegaly is a usual radiologic finding of hepatic amyloidosis. To our knowledge, this is the first case of amyloidosis involving the liver that presented as a mass.
